Now that's a collection, I wonder why he's selling all of them, maybe he's hurting for money.

That is one find Ford collection, with most of them being Mustangs. A ton of money there! I marked the dates on my calendar. That's going to be a great Mecum auction to watch.

He is definitely in no need for money, he's trying to liquidate his collection to establish a scholarship fund program at the University of Texas and that's just a part of his collection.

I was going to ask if this was just PART of his collection. Wow! Good for him to establish a scholarship fund program. Any idea how big his collection is?

Gary Thomas is considered one of the largest-known private collections of Ford automobiles.

I had a chance to meet him last year and got to see some of his collection.
I got to take some pictures, this is one of them of the AC Cobra that was featured in the movie "Ford Vs Ferrari."
